I kept it to a simple global configuration, rather than using the
preprocessor directive for recentchanges, because that had chicken and egg
problems and seemed overcomplicated. This should work reasonably well,
though it would be good to add some more metadata so that more customised
recentchanges pages can be made.
This makes it a lot quicker to deal with lots of recentchanges pages
appearing and disappearing. It avoids needing to clutter up pagespecs with
exclusions for those pages, by making normal pagespecs not match them.
returned (and not run in some cases) rather than the plugins directly
forcing a user to log in.
* opendiscussion: allow editing of the toplevel discussion page,
and, indirectly, allow creating new discussion pages.
links required meta to be run during scan, which complicated its data
storage, since it had to clear data stored during the scan pass to avoid
duplicating it during the normal preprocessing pass.
* If you used "meta link", you should switch to either "meta openid" (for
openid delegations), or tags (for internal, invisible links). I assume
that nobody really used "meta link" for external, non-openid links, since
the htmlscrubber ate those. (Tell me differently and I'll consider bringing
back that support.)
* meta: Improved data storage.
* meta: Drop the hackish filter hook that was used to clear
stored data before preprocessing, this hack was ugly, and broken (cf:
liw's disappearing openids).
* aggregate: Convert filter hook to a needsbuild hook.
so that more than one plugin can use this hook.
I believe this is a safe change, since only passwordauth uses this hook.
(If some other plugin already used it, it would have broken passwordauth!)
It would be better if it were a formbuilder hook. But the formbuilder hook
is wacked.. I may need to change how that hook works, which would mean
changing the only current user of it, passwordauth).
and forces rebuilds of the pages that contain calendars. So
running ikiwiki --refresh at midnight is now enough, no need for a full
wiki rebuild each midnight.
* calendar: Work around block html parsing bug in markdown 1.0.1 by
enclosing the calendar in an extra div.
* Reformat calendar plugin to ikiwiki conventions.
* The calendar plugin made *every* page depend on every other page,
which seemed a wee tiny little bit overkill. Fixed the dependency
calculations (I hope.)
* Removed manual ctime statting code, and just have the calendar plugin use
%pagectime.
ikiwiki via XML RPC. This should be much faster than the old plugin that
had to fork python for every rst page render. Note that if you use
the rst plugin, you now need to have the RPC::XML perl module installed.
are not included in the map. Include special styling for such pages.
* map: Remove common prefixes and don't over-indent.
* Add class option to htmllink().
* table plugin: The previous version broke WikiLinks inside quoted values.
Fix this by linkifying CSV data after parsing it, while DSV data is still
linkified before parsing.
* Plugins can add new directories to the search path with the add_underlay
function.
* Split out smiley underlay files into a separate underlay, so if the plugin
isn't used, the wiki isn't bloated with all those files.
calendar, and youtube. Normally, the htmlsanitiser eats these since they
use unsafe tags, the embed plugin overrides it for trusted sites.
* The googlecalendar plugin is now deprecated, and will be removed
eventually. Please switch to using the embed plugin.
- add a title to the editpage form;
- pass a reference to the list of buttons to the formbuilder_setup
hooks, so we can add ours;
- relax asumption about the possible submit values (use "Save Page"
explicitly);
- de-hardcode the submit buttons from the editpage template
(This was needed for compatability with a bug in CGI::FormBuilder
3.0401, but ikiwiki already needs a newer version.)
* Pass buttons to all other formbuilder_setup hooks too.
patches can now be anywhere and tagged patch to show up on the patch list.
Moved all the patchqueue stuff to todo items; some of it was merged into
existing todo items.
(Get a good message when a PageSpec fails due to a negated success by
creating success objects with a reason string, which morph into failure
objects when negated.)
scalar context, evaluates to a reason why the match failed.
* Add testpagespec plugin, which might be useful to see why a pagespec isn't
matching something.
for extended pagespecs. The old calling convention will still work for
back-compat for now.
* The calling convention for functions in the IkiWiki::PageSpec namespace
has changed so they are passed named parameters.
* Plugin interface version increased to 2.00 since I don't anticipate any
more interface changes before 2.0.
on and supported creating it (especially Tumov). This adds a "usedirs"
option that makes ikiwiki use foo/index.html instead of foo.html as
output page names. It is not yet enabled by default.
available templates. Rename the old templates page to wikitemplates.
* Include the note template in the basewiki.
* Add a popup template in the basewiki. CSS based on some by Martin Krafft.
* Make the note, popup, and plugin templates detect missing variables and be
self-documenting, listing the available variables.
* Renamed %oldpagemtime to a more accurately named %pagemtime and fix it to
actually store pages' mtimes.
* Add "mtime" sort parameter to inline plugin.
that given link points based on the page doing the linking. Note that this
could make such PageSpecs match different things than before, if you
relied on the old behavior of them only matching the raw link text.
* This required changing the match_* interface, adding a third parameter.
* Allow link() PageSpecs to match relative, as is allowed with globs.a
* Add postform option to inline plugin.
* Add an bug tracker to the softwaresite example.
plugins's support for inserting html link and meta tags. Now such content
is passed through the htmlscrubber like everything else.
* Unfortunatly, that means that some valid uses of those tags are no longer
usable, and special case methods needed to be added for including
stylesheets, and for doing openid delegation. If you use either of these
in your wiki, it will need to be modified. See the meta plugin docs
for details.
previous ugly hack used to avoid writing rss feeds in previews.
* Fix the img plugin to avoid overwriting images in previews. Instead it
does all the work to make sure the resizing works, and dummys up a resized
image using width and height attributes.
* Also fixes img preview display, the links were wrong in preview before.
parameters remain the same, but additional options are now passed in using
named parameters.
* Change plugin interface version to 1.02 to reflect this change.
* Add a new anchor option to htmllink. Thanks Ben for the idea.
* Support anchors in wikilinks.
* Add a "more" plugin based on one contributed by Ben to allow implementing
those dreaded "Read more" links in blogs.
including out of disk space situations. ikiwiki should never leave
truncated files, and if the error occurs during a web-based file edit,
the user will be given an opportunity to retry.
Inspired by the many ways Moin Moin destroys itself when out of disk. :-)
* Fix syslogging of errors.
* Add a "conditional" plugin, which allows displaying text if a condition
is true. It is enabled by default so conditional can be used in the
basewiki.
* Use conditionals in the template for plugins, so that plugin pages
say if they're currently enabled or not, and in various other places
in the wiki.
edited.
* Move code forcing signing before edit to a new "signinedit" plugin, and
code checking for locked pages into a new "lockedit" plugin. Both are
enabled by default.
* Remove the anonok config setting. This is now implemented by a new
"anonok" plugin. Anyone with a wiki allowing anonymous edits should
change their configs to enable this new plugin.
* Add an opendiscussion plugin that allows anonymous users to edit
discussion pages, on a wiki that is otherwise wouldn't allow it.
* Lots of CGI code reorg and cleanup.
* Introduce the nicebundle. This is a kind of plugin, that just enables
many other plugins. It's an easy way to boost ikiwiki from its default,
basic wiki, to a full-featured wiki, without manually picking the right
set of plugins. New plugins will be added to the nicebundle from time to
time.
nothing more spohisticated will be needed.
* Add formbuilder_setup and formbuilder hooks.
* Split out a passwordauth module, that holds all the traditional password
based authentication etc code. It's enabled by default, but can be disabled
if you want only openid or some other auth method.
* Make the openid plugin support the callbacks from myopenid.com via its
affiliate program.
* Change how post signin actions are propigated through the signin process;
they're now stored in the session.
* Use precalculated backlinks info when determining if files need an update
due to a page they link to being added/removed. Mostly significant if
there are lots of pages.
* Remove duplicate link info when saving index. In some cases it could
pile up rather badly. (Probably not the best way to deal with this
problem.)
8x.
* Add "scan" parameter to hook(), which is used to make the hook be called
during the scanning pass, as well as the render pass. The meta and tag
plugins need to use the new scan parameter, so will any others that modify
%links.
* Now that links are calculated in a separate pass, it can also
precalculate backlinks in one pass, which is O(N^2) instead of the
previous code that was O(N^3). A very nice speedup for wikis with lots
(thousands) of pages.
* Add a shortcut plugin, inspired by Victor Moral's contributed shortcuts
plugin, but featuring a more ikiwiki-ish syntax and with shortcuts that
can be configured using a page in wiki.
* Add feeds=no option to inline preprocessor directive to turn off all types
of feeds. feeds=rss will still work, and feeds=atom was also added, for
fine control.
* $IkiWiki::version now holds the program version, and is accessible to
plugins.
source file, to allow tracking of extra rendered files like rss feeds.
* Note that plugins that accessed this variable will need to be updated!
The plugin interface has been increased to version 1.01 for this change.
* Add will_render function to the plugin interface, used to register that a
page renders a destination file, and do some security checks.
* Use will_render in the inline and linkmap plugins.
* Previously but no longer rendered files will be cleaned up.
* You will need to rebuild your wiki on upgrade to this version.
- Plugins should not need to load IkiWiki::Render to get commonly
used functions, so moved some functions from there to IkiWiki.
- Picked out the set of functions and variables that most plugins
use, documented them, and made IkiWiki export them by default,
like a proper perl module should.
- Use the other functions at your own risk.
- This is not quite complete, I still have to decide whether to
export some other things.
* Changed all plugins included in ikiwiki to not use "IkiWiki::" when
referring to stuff now exported by the IkiWiki module.
* Anyone with a third-party ikiwiki plugin is strongly enrouraged
to make like changes to it and avoid use of non-exported symboles from
"IkiWiki::".
* Link debian/changelog and debian/news to NEWS and CHANGELOG.
* Support hyperestradier version 1.4.2, which adds a new required phraseform
setting.
This allows passing a wikilink inside a parameter to a preprocessor
directive without it being expanded to html, and leaking out of the
parameter, which had required some non-obvious use of triple-quoting
to avoid. Note that any preprocessor plugins that output something
that looks like a wikilink will now have it treated as such; AFAIK
this doesn't change any behavior though except for the template plugin.
* Enable preprocessor directives when previewing an edit.
text blocks, for easy nesting of quotes inside.
* Add a template plugin.
* Use the template plugin to add infoboxes to each plugin page listing basic
info about the plugin.
Talens-Oliag. Note that this has many known issues -- see the caveats on
the plugin's page.
* Credit everyone who wrote a plugin on the plugins' wiki pages.
* If a page links to itself, mark up the link text in a span with
class="selflink" so that it can be styled. I don't have a useful style
defined for that though.
in case it was installed as one. Then fall back to trying
/usr/bin/markdown.
* Document in install page how to install markdown, since it has no
installation procedure in the upstream tarball.
Run it with -asxhtml instead, so it will output well-formed xhtml no
matter what the input.
* Disable tidy warnings too.
* Add a new format hook, and make tidy use it, since tidy can really only
operate on and output complete html documents, not the body chunks
that sanitise gets.
* Add permalink and author support to meta plugin, affecting RSS feeds
and blog pages.
* Change titlepage() to encode utf-8 alnum characters. This is necessary
to avoid UTF-8 creeping into filenames in urls. (There are still
some other ways that it can get in.)
* PageSpecs can now include nested parens, "and", and "or". This remains
backwards compatible to the old GlobList format. It's implemented by
treating the GlobList as a very limited microlanguage that is transformed
to perl code that does the matching.
* The old GlobList format is deprecated, and I encourage users to switch to
using the new PageSpec format. Compatability with the old format will be
removed at some point, possibly by 2.0.
* Wiki rebuild needed on upgrade to this version due to PageSpec change.
* Add support for creation_month and creation_year to PageSpec.
Closes: #380680
* Changes to index file encoding.
quotes and such can be represented in title tags.
* Depend and build-depend on HTML::Parser for HTML::Entities which is used
for the above.
* Make --rebuild also cause --aggregate to re-download and write aggregated
pages.
* Avoid outputting duplicate meta info.
* Include title metadata on aggregated posts for capitalised and un-munged
titles.
plugin, so it's possible to implement a Planet using ikiwiki!
* --setup --refresh no longer rebuilds wrappers. Use --setup --refresh
--wrappers to do that.
* Add %IkiWiki::forcerebuild to provide a way for plugins like aggregate
to update pages that haven't changed on disk.
* Pass a "destpage" parameter to preprocessor and pagetemplate hooks.
This will be the page that a source page will be part of, which is
different than the source page for inlined pages.
* Audited all plugins to endure they pass page, destpage to htmllink
appropriatly. This means inlining of various plugins will not work
properly, with correct links generated.
The meta plugin can also still be used for that, but the tag plugin
also lists a page's tags at the bottom of the page.
- Allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
value.
- Fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value.
* Run pagetemplate hooks when inlining pages so that inlines pages also
list their tags.
* Make all plugins with pagetemplate hooks check that variables exist
on the template before setting them.
- allows preprocessor directives to have parameters with no specified
value
- fixes preprocessor directive parameter parsing so that
foo=bar baz now means "foo=bar" and a "baz" with no value
- Add a tag plugin that allows more easily tagging pages.
The meta plugin can also still be used for this.
* Noticed a bug in the wikitext markup plugin -- it made CamelCase links the
default throughout the wiki, not only on wikitext pages. Decided to call
this a feature, and split the camelcase support out into a separate plugin
that is independant of wikitext.
if you'd ever want to do such a thing. Slightly tricky, since ikiwiki
defaults to not processing .html files, since w/o this plugin they would
be copied unsanitised. With this plugin, it will process, and html
sanitise, them like any other page type.
* Allow pagetemplate plugins to override *anything* in the template.
* Add a meta plugin, which allows specifying various metadata about pages,
like license and author. It also allows for inserting html link and meta
tags into html, overriding the title, and adding hidden WikiLinks, which
can be useful when using link-based globbing for page categorisation.
* Remove preprocessor directives from inlined pages.
* Allow simple preprocessor directive values to be specified w/o quotes.
* When inlining a page in another one, links from the inlined page are now
expanded the same as they are when rendering the inlined page as a
standalone page. So rather than being expanded from the POV of the
inlining page, they are expanded from the POV of the inlined page.
For example, a link from blog/foo to "bar" will now link to blog/bar
if it exists. Previously this needed to be a link explicitly to
"blog/bar"; such links will also continue to work.
(This was slightly complex to do as the link still has to be constructed
relative to the inlining page.)
<span>, so pages can use <h1> internally instead of needing to use <h2>.
* Updated all of ikiwiki's own wiki pages for that.
* Add pagetemplate hook, which can be used by plugins that want to mess
around with adding new stuff to the page template.
* Remove headercontent; the search plugin now adds the search box to the
header by registering a pagetemplate hook, and other plugins should do
similarly.
for other types of search engine plugins if wanted, and also opening up a
lot of new possibilities for other kinds of plugins later
some notable changes along the way:
- lots of new hook types: cgi, render, delete
- wrapper files fixed to support config strings with newlines in them
- HEADERCONTENT in page template useful for plugins. Probably needs to be
expanded to more such for other places plugins might want to add content.
- remove unnecessary wrappers field from config info stored in wrappers
to pave the way for adding other RCS support. This also changes the
setup files, where before they had svn => 1 or svn => 0, now they have
rcs => "svn" or rcs => "".
* Add a debian/NEWS file with upgrade notes.
* Load whatever rcs module is specified, so new ones can be just dropped in
as plugins and work.
* Add some basic docs about writing RCS modules.
* Added a pagecount plugin, enabled by default.
* Support PreProcessorDirectives with no parameters, ie "[[pagecount ]]".
* Fixed/optimised backlinks code, to avoid rebuilding pages to update
backlinks when the backlinks hadn't really changed.
* Moved inline page support, rss generation etc into the inline plugin,
enabled by default.
* Added brokenlinks plugin, not enabled by default, but rather handy.
* Fix several broken links in the doc wiki.
